Diversey / U S Chemical: 2.6 TCR = 79% of Detergents (e.g., dishwashing, industrial, laundry) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Diversey / U S Chemical safety composite

Diversey / U S Chemical scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 84% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 41%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers.
